Like knitting, when you start to crochet you start collecting a range of different crochet hook sizes. Even with bringing my own from the UK I just kept them together with an old hair tie. With of them being old they deserved some more love and I went after finding a pattern on raverly [you can find the pattern here].
The roll is stitched using a star pattern which was a new and trickier stitch then normal but certainly paid off in figuring it out - and I found this tutorial really helped. I crocheted the width until I it was wide enough to hold all the hooks with extra space for new purchases. The roll from finished off through adding a string of crocheted chains which can be tied around the middle of the roll to fasten it shut.
This star pattern was great in providing holes in the pattern that the hooks could slot through and be held securely. How long the hooks will stay organised in size order - from a 1.25 to a huge thick 8, is another matter!
Keeping my hooks somewhere this pretty is inspiring me to want to break them out and crochet something new. I'm been eyeing up granny squares for a while perhaps for another blanket [yes another] or cushion covers but Joe has been hinting for me to get back into crocheting socks alongside working on some cross stitch gifts for Christmas - yes i'm mentioning the C word already.
